Answers :

Sounds like a faulty IC chip or relay that is triggered by heat. Usually in that case it costs as much to repair the monitor as buying a new one. If you want to get it checked out by a local technician it's up to you, but i suggest not to bother and just go buy a new one. I suggest a LG LCD monitor if you want good quality. I sold those for a while and also worked with them a few years and they are pretty much the most top of the line monitors for a reasonnable price and hardly ever fail. If you want to pay a little less for your monitor, i recommend a Hanns G monitor. Bought one for my girlfriends computer 2 years ago and a friend of mine also has one and they are pretty good quality and also pretty durable for a lesser price than the LGs.

It's either shorting out or overheating. I'd say by the amount of time you're stating it's probably overheating rather than shorting out. Have you put your hand near it when it's done this? If the back is hot that may be the problem.\015\012\015\012If you have a can of air I'd use it to clean it out.

Monitor Goes Blank after 30 mins....

Hello, A family member gave me a CTX S760 17- LCD Monitor. When I hook it up and start my PC the screen looks GREAT for about 15 sec or so and then goes black. Same thing will happen if I power off the monitor with the PC on and then power up the monitor, after 15 sec or so it will go black. Any info would be helpfull. Thank you Chris
